MAINE DISPATCHES.
WAS 1T MURDER!
A New Solution Suggested of the Lewis.
ton Tragedy.

BIDDEFoRD, Sept. II.
Biddeford parties Saturday, communicated
information to Detective Tarbox, which has
important connections with the finding of the
body of Fred Randall in the canal at Lewis
ton, Sunday. George W. Judkin. Mrs. Gym
thia Hill and Miss Della Schwartz of Bidde-
ford, attended the Lewiston fair last Thurs
day.
From the fair they went to Delavens circu,
and started for the railroad station at half
past ten o'clock, accompanied by Mr. Foster,
Lewiston stone cutter. Just before reach
ing the bridge they heard splash in the
water that startled them. Immediately two
men came hurrying along from the opposite
direction and Miss Schwartz hailed one of
them and ask ed what the matter was. He
said, go, nothing, only dog has gone over
board" and hurried along with his compan-
ion. Judkins and his companions looked
over the rail Of the bridge and saw dark OBJ
ject struggling in the water and making a
gurgling noise. In an instant it sank from
view. Miss Schwartz said ''If it was dog
should think it would have swan ashore;"
and Mrs. Hill replied, ats gone. any way"
They then proceeded on their way.
They thought nothing more of the occur
renee until they read in the papers the report
of the finding and identification of the body.
Detective Tarbox has telegraphed to Lewis
ton authorities.
Judkins said the affair happened between
10 and Il o'clock, and it was dark, but that
one of the men was quite tall. the other being
short, turned his face as he passed and the
electric light striking it revealed his features
and he should know the face if he saw it
among thousand. the man had reddish
hair and moustache, and wore a short, frock
coat, a sack and a soft hat such as travellers
wear in the cars. Foster used to work in
Biddeford, afterward going to Lewiston, but
went to North Conway the first of this week.

FEARFUL SIGHTS.
Scenes at the Midland Railway Disaster
in Engiand-The Cause of the Accident
still u Mystery.
LONDON. Sent. II.

LONDON, Sept. II.
The following briefly describes the collis-
ion on the Midland read on Friday. The
Midland train WAS crowded with excursloI-
lists going to Dorchester to see the races
Suddenly n plate layer was noticed wildly
waving red flag. On looking out the pas
sengers were horried to see the express
coming at full speed. Before realizing their
danger there was terrific shock and the
express had cut through the excursion train.
Tue express engine was badly damaged, but
kept on the rails. Its train practically sus-
tanned no damage. The scene was horrible.
Scores of people lay bleeding or dead,
wedged amid splintered woodwork and debris.
The shrieks aud groans were heartrending,
but it was impossible to release them till
mechanical appliances arrived. Many were
taden out shockingly mangled, with arms and
legs severed. Others were almost decapitat-
ed ald disemboweled. The dead were laid
in the adjoining meadows. Some were only
recognizable by their clothing. The injured
were conveyed IN inprovised smbulances to
the nearest houses. A number of surgeons
were speedily in attendance. There were
numerous broken legs, some requiring am-
putation. A mother with her baby IN her
arms was killed, while the child escaped un-
hurt One man had his head completely torn
of and the body was found upright in the
carriage. The extricstion was conducted by
means of a saw and axe which caused deep
suffering to the injured. A curve in the line
hid the express till it was within short dis
tsnce of the excursion train, when the engi-
neer and fireman were seen frsntcsily pull
ing levers. The engineer, named Taylor. is
an old employe of the company. lie has nos
explained how he ran past danger signals.
He withholds his statements. In consequence
of the races and the pressure of trathc, the
ordinary block system was suspended and
traffic worked by hand signals and flags. II
is rumored tlat the brakes were applied
but failed to act. A majority of the victims
were residents of Sheffield and Lexthorpe.
Officials aver that the signals were at dan.
ger against Taylor who, however, has the
character of an attentive, sober, trustworthy
man. He has been on the road l6 years.
The latest report places the number dead at
23, and injured at 60.

In Brief, and 60 the Point.

Dyspepsia is dreadful Disordered liver
is misery. Indigestion is Toe to good ma
ture.
The human digestive apparatus is one of
the most complicated and wonderful things
in existence. 1t is easily put out of order.
Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food, bad
cookery, mental worry, late hours, irregular
habits, and many other things which ought
not to be, have made the American people a
nation of dyspeptics.
But Green's August Flour has done wor-
derful work in reforming this sad business
and making the American people 40 healthy
that they can enjoy their meals and be happy.
Remember-No happiness without bealth
But Green's August Flower brings health
and happiness to the dyspeptic. Ask your
druggist for bottle. Seventy five cents.
